Thick Fat makes Snorlax amazing, because you now resist two types instead of none, and retain your Ghost immunity. But Solid Rock Rhyperior is really, really good too - that attack, that defense, pretty nice HP. You do have to watch out for tough STAB Water moves though. Sandstorms pump up your SpDef even higher, even if they're not as useful as they were previously.

It also managed to teach Cut to a Pokemon.

Now it's trying to cut down the tree next to the gym, and it's so far taken longer than the gym battle itself, without any results.

Not just water, grass too. Especially Grass Knot.

No amount of filter will protect you from Grass Knot. An assault vest + filter + sandstorm Rhyperior will still die in one hit to grass knot, it's pretty hilarious.

Nowhere else is a simple trip so deadly.

Showdown has now upgraded all its 2D sprites to the 3D ones used in XY.

Every day they tiptoe closer and closer to the inevitable shutdown notice from Nintendo.

It is very, very hard to resist the urge to mod pokemon into dwarf fortress.

I have an inner battle between the side of me that wants to mod in the Kanto starters and the side of me that's too lazy to do that.

I think you've got it the wrong way around. Laziness is an urge too, so what you're saying is that it's hard to get yourself to mod Pokémon into DF. Also you should probably give in to your modding urge. Screw laziness.

I'm pretty sure there have been multiple attempts to mod pokemon into DF.  I tried once, well before any attacks more complicated than flamethrower were possible in DF.  The work required to replace even the vanilla creatures with their pokemon counterparts is staggering.

If you can pull it off more power to ya.

I figured Charmander would be the easiest, just let it breathe fire and make its tail out of something really hot.

I figured you could take dragonfire and replace fire with water for Squirtle; barring that, an interaction that shoots balls of water.

Past that I'm stumped. Maybe something that shoots balls of plant matter?

Now that I think about it, that's pretty much it. Just mod in 721 creatures that shoot balls of varying materials.

Lol, we should start a collaborative project to do that.

I'm going to laugh if making a charmander's tail out of something hot lights the rest of it on fire and they all just burn to death as soon as they pop in to existence. I assume you can set a flag to make things immune to heat, but it's still a funny mental image.

The moment the lever was pulled, somebody's pet kitten stepped onto the bridge. I read somewhere that if a cat falls more than 11 stories, it instinctively flares its legs out to increase air resistance. This slows it down enough to stick the landing with relatively minor injuries. In Dwarf Fortress, apparently, cats don't do that.

Dunno if anyone's mentioned this yet, but it looks like X and Y will be getting its own downloadable legendary. More details coming "soon".

There are two others, along with a mega-evolution for a previous gen's legendary as well.

(By the way, Diancie has in those screenshots 125 hp at level 50, which roughly suggests 250hp at level 100. This implies around base 70 something HP. Pokemon that have HP this low tend to be glass cannons (Aegislash, Greninja, Gengar)
